#Dragonbones vs spine how to#
This is my first time working in the industry but have experience in how to prepare everything to put it in an engine through school. A bit of information on me, since I'm the sole artist of the game, is that I have a background on making traditional hand drawn frame animation, have a background in 3D rigging and animation, and have experience using puppet animation of Adobe Animate/Flash. Dragonbones seems pretty nice tool but exporting the sprites is somewhat hassle.

My question is that in this situation, should we be spending a lot of money for Spine pro, spend a modest amount of money for Spine Ess or Spriter Pro, or are we able to make do with the free stuff, such as DragonBones and Spriter Free, since we are not going to utilize bone data in our engine?Ī bit of background on the game to help sway the decision is that the will be mostly on a stationary camera position, the main character is in a hotair balloon, and it is more obstacle focus rather than enemy. Hey everyone, Been messing with Spine Trial and Dragonbones for a while now.

I believe we are using traditional individual frames for the game and not the bone animation data that these programs have. Which animation software has the best auto-weight feature Let's find out Here's some timestamps for your convenience: 00:00 - Introduction 00:45 - Spine Pro 02:23 - DragonBones 03:36. (I was currently doing the Animation mockups by hand drawing them.) The only reason why I am asking is because we are using an engine that we have actually made ourselves for the game we are not using Unity or Unreal or anything like that. First video in the DragonBones series.In this first video we learn how to import art assets in to DragonBones, organize them, and create our first Bone/Skele. It contains a integrated creative tool DragonBones Pro, Flash Pro plugin for animation export and lots of runtime libraries for game engines and platforms. It provides 2D animation solution and motion comic solution. We are trying to be more cost effective by trying to cut down on art time by obtaining the license to a 2D bone animation software. DragonBones is a 2D game animation and righ media content creative platform for designer. DragonBones is a completely free tool with some of the features that are only in the paid versions in Spriter and Spine, like inverse kinematics, mesh. Dragonbones (Free, Open Source 2D Spine Animation Software) is now compatible with Game Maker Thanks to 'JimmyBG' on yoyogames forums. I'm currently working in a company that is starting to make games. The price is a bit steep, but in the long run, it will save us time and money for the investment.
Edit: After some consideration and taking advice from everybody, we have decided to move forward with Spriter Pro.
